“Given the Trump camp’s newfound sensitivity around bathroom humor, workers are currently going around the National Mall taping over the company name on each porta-potty: “Don’s Johns.”

It’s making the rounds on Twitter”

13. OMG: Don's Johns chief operating officer. "We're trying to get to the BOTTOM of it." - TRUE

They are furious that the signs are being covered up!!

We didn't authorize anyone to cover them up," says Robert Weghorst, Don's Johns chief operating officer. "We're trying to get to the bottom of it."

The Virginia-based company is widely experienced with large-scale events, but Weghorst says they've never had to deal with this kind of issue.

Don's Johns provided port-a-potties for at least the past three inaugurations without incident, their logo intact on the individual decals. And while some golf tournaments have requested that the company remove branding on the portable facilities because it could wind up on the broadcast, that is written into the contract long before workers begin installation.

"We’ve never run into this before, someone placing this ugly blue tape over the logo," Weghorst says.

Robert Weghorst, the head of Don’s Johns, told the AP that he didn’t know the name would be covered.

“We didn’t tell someone to do it,” Weghorst reportedly said. “We’re proud to have our name on the units.”

Weghorst also reportedly told DCist that he planned on sending employees to Capitol Hill as early as this weekend to remove the tape.

“We’ve never run into this before, someone placing this ugly blue tape over the logo,” Weghorst told the local news site............

29. The scary part is

When a Trump protester pulls the tape off in front of a Trump supporter. Don't see that going well. The tape needs to go, before the shit flies. (Sorry, couldn't help myself.)
